Synopsis

Album Description
The name troubadour has been in use since the 16th Century and was originally coined to describe a travelling minstrel who'd entertain by 'playing and singing songs'. The continued success of acoustic based artists in recent years has seen the term Troubadours become the subject of features in Billboard (Jan 2002) and Mojo while Q's regular use of the term confirms that the art of the singer songwriter is back firmly on agendas. By drawing from diverse sources, Troubadours The Essential Album celebrates the art in fine style. 32 outstanding songs from the world's finest singer songwriters make this an essential release. Featuring J.J. Cale, David Gray, Jim Croce, Donovan, Eric Clapton, Aaron Neville, Dan Bern, Loudon Wainwright III, Robert Wyatt, Leon Russell and more. Housed in a slipcase.
